After a while, Liu Xuan emerged from the depths of the jungle, his face filled with exhilaration.
On the other side, Feng Zhe was already half-dead, devoid of any arrogance, with a look of utter despair.
"Young Master, I've found out. That Blood Fiend Grand Sacrifice is a terrifying ritual. Their Blood Fiend Grand Sacrifice aims to sacrifice half the demonic races in the Heavenly Fiend Domain for mysterious power..."
"That old geezer said that not long ago, a mysterious person found their clan leader, and together with the clan leaders of the Cloud Tiger Clan and the Exploding Bear Clan, they organized this action..."
"According to him, they had previously invited the Great Sage of Covering Seas, but the Great Sage of Covering Seas refused..."
...
Liu Xuan respectfully approached Jiang Li and spoke.
Mysterious person? Jiang Li's brows furrowed.
Had another formidable figure appeared?
Beside him, Su Mengli's eyes were filled with a chilling glint. This matter actually involved her father.
Could it be that because her father refused the mysterious person, he met with misfortune?
Su Mengli bit her lip, her heart filled with confusion.
"Mengli, don't worry, your father will be fine!" Jiang Li noticed Su Mengli's emotional state was not right and embraced her, comforting her.
Su Mengli took a deep breath, suppressing the chaotic thoughts in her heart.
"Is there any other information?" Jiang Li continued to ask.
Liu Xuan pondered for a moment and then said, "Once this Blood Fiend Grand Sacrifice begins, all living beings within the Heavenly Fiend Domain will be cut off from the outside world and unable to leave the Heavenly Fiend Domain..."
Cut off from the outside world... unable to leave the Heavenly Fiend Domain...
Jiang Li's brows creased. If that were the case, it would be troublesome.
The clan leaders of the Heavenly Fiend Domain were all Great Sage-level powerhouses.
Even if he could now contend with a Saint King, he would likely not gain any advantage against beings at the Great Sage level.
Furthermore, there was this mysterious person. Who knew what tricks that fellow had up his sleeve.
On the other side, Lin Ziyan took out the communication jade pendant that could contact the Chaos Sacred Land from her spatial ring and found that indeed, she could not connect.
"Young Master, that old geezer was telling the truth. We really cannot contact the outside world!" Lin Ziyan said.
As Lin Ziyan spoke, a shadow of gloom descended upon everyone's hearts.
"I think I've seen the Blood Fiend Grand Sacrifice in our Green Hill's ancient texts!" At this moment, Su Mengli seemed to recall something and spoke.
"Mengli, then tell me, what other information is there about this Blood Fiend Grand Sacrifice!"
Jiang Li's eyes lit up. Did Su Mengli know something?
If they couldn't leave, they had to focus on the Blood Fiend Grand Sacrifice itself.
"The first appearance of the Blood Fiend Grand Sacrifice was tens of thousands of years ago. At that time, a supremely talented supreme expert named Ancestor Blood Fiend appeared in the Heavenly Fiend Domain. He performed the first Blood Fiend Grand Sacrifice to borrow its power to break through to the quasi-emperor realm..."
"But he was discovered by several supreme experts of the True Dragon Clan, and they stopped that Blood Fiend Grand Sacrifice..."
"Ancestor Blood Fiend also perished after the Blood Fiend Grand Sacrifice..."
"But even though it was successfully stopped, it still caused immense bloodshed. Nearly half of the demonic races in the Heavenly Fiend Domain lost their lives during that Blood Fiend Grand Sacrifice..."
Su Mengli continued.
Ancestor Blood Fiend, and the True Dragon Clan's supremes were mobilized...
He hadn't expected it to be related to supreme and quasi-emperor powers. This Blood Fiend Grand Sacrifice was a big problem.
"Mengli, is there any way to leave this place?" Jiang Li asked.
If it were truly related to supremes, Jiang Li truly had no solution at the moment.
Liu Xuan and Lin Ziyan on the side also stared intently at Su Mengli, wanting to see if she had any ideas.
"Our Green Hill Heavenly Fiend Fox Clan's ancestral land is protected by the spirits of our ancestors. Going there should be able to shelter us from the effects of the Blood Fiend Grand Sacrifice... During the last Blood Fiend Grand Sacrifice, many Heavenly Fox Clan members hid there and escaped with their lives..."
Su Mengli pondered for a moment and then said.
"In that case, let's go to your ancestral land to see first!" Jiang Li said.
Everyone nodded. At this time, they had no other choice but to go and see.
"Young Master, what about that old geezer? I left him with a breath of life!" Liu Xuan said to Jiang Li.
"Bang bang bang!!!"
As soon as Liu Xuan finished speaking, a massive void handprint appeared where Feng Zhe was located.
Feng Zhe's body was crushed into pieces by the suddenly appearing void handprint.
Golden flesh and blood splattered everywhere, and the entire jungle was filled with the scent of blood.
"Why keep such a useless piece of trash? Let's go..." Jiang Li said.
Liu Xuan looked at the mangled remains in the distance, shivering inwardly.
He was a Saint King of the Third Heaven, and he was killed just like that?
It was truly his great fortune from eight lifetimes to be alive, Liu Xuan felt incredibly fortunate.
Following that, led by Su Mengli, everyone sped towards the ancestral land of the Taichu Fox Clan.
...
Green Hill.
An Yuan Lake.
An Yuan Lake was located in a valley in the eastern part of Green Hill.
The scenery here was beautiful, with clear and lovely vistas everywhere.
Along the edges of An Yuan Lake, many spiritual plants and herbs released radiant spiritual energy.
The beautiful environment here formed a stark contrast to the bloody chaos in other places, like a utopia.
In the center of An Yuan Lake, a tall and straight young man sat cross-legged on a raft in the middle of the lake.
The young man wore a magnificent brocade robe, embroidered with many golden dragons.
The surrounding spiritual energy was being absorbed into the young man's body like a whale swallowing water.
Faint dragon roars could be heard from within the young man.
The lake water also churned rapidly due to the young man's ravenous absorption of spiritual energy.
If Jiang Li were here, he would definitely recognize this young man as Tang Long of the True Dragon Clan, whom he had encountered in Taiyin Valley before.
At this moment, Tang Long exuded a formidable aura. There was a faint mark on his forehead, as if he had already activated some of the power of the Supreme Dragon Body.
"Your Highness, the Blood Fiend Grand Sacrifice has already begun. It should be completed in a few days!" Before long, the space distorted, and a gaunt old man slowly emerged from the void.
The young man slowly opened his eyes. The surrounding spiritual energy ceased its surge, and the lake water stopped churning. Everything seemed to calm down.
"Elder Xu, isn't what we're doing too dangerous? After all, they've prepared for a long time..." the young man said with some worry.
"Your Highness need not worry. They have prepared, but have we not also spent a considerable amount of time preparing!" the old man smiled slightly, his face filled with confidence.
